Patch Notes 0.0.8: Deck Gun Update

We have another update for you all! But also please take some time to check out the message just below deck… Help Us In Bug Hunting!

Thank you to those of you who have stuck with us in these early access stages of development! We have made huge progress and improvements. But there are still quite a few things to go. We hear the comments and reviews and wish to make it clearer for people to submit proper bug reports to us, so that we might find the bugs and squash them. As while these comments are appreciated, they do not really help us actually figure anything out.

The best way is to submit logs, save files and tell us what is happening to you. These are vital for us to replicate the issue on our end. Because if we don't see it, we can't fix it. So in order to get the info we need to help fix things, please follow these below options. And remember to post logs and save files with a description/images of the issue.
